INDIANAPOLIS – A jury convicted William Beeler Tuesday of robbing a branch of Forum CU of more than $210,000 in June 2006, but none of the money was ever recovered. Beller, 45, of Indianapolis, maintained his innocence throughout his trial, despite the fact that $11,000 of the stolen loot was traced to him, including $4,000 in cash he used to buy a used Cadilac DeVille and $1,060 he used to pay overdue rent and luxury items, including a flat-screen TV, right after the heist. But the rest of the money was never found. Police said Beeler broke into the credit union brandishing a handgun and ordered the manager to duct-tape the hands and mouth of a member and a teller.
